--- Comment #5 from Ralph Plawetzki <ra...@purejava.org> --- Dear Konstantin, thank you very much for the fast review. I'd like to explain why I checked for the Tomcat Monitor application whether it is configured to autolaunch: in tomcat.nsi $TomcatServiceName is also part of the registry entry stored for the Tomcat Monitor application and it seemed better to check that than to use an external NSIS library to read the installed services as suggested in comment 1. But you are absolutely right, it's better to check if a service of the same name is already installed. I looked a little further into MSDN documentation and found that services are also listed in the registry under HKLM SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ so I changed the registry check in the patch. Please find the new patch attached. You can check that it works by installing the tomcat service and running the installer a second time. If a service of the same name exists, it prompts the user with a pop-up and remains on the configuration page. The patch is in svn diff format against trunk.
